Commercial Vacuum Cleaners

Not all vacuums are built for the same job. Dry-only models handle fine dust and debris in sensitive environments. Wet and dry vacuums deal with spills, slurry and construction mess. Backpack models are built for operators covering large areas on foot all day.

We stock commercial vacuums from Cleanstar, Ghibli, Pacvac, Columbus, Truvox, Surevac and SPRiNTUS — including HEPA filtered options for healthcare, aged care and schools — with fast dispatch across Australia. Not sure which type suits your application? Give us a call and we'll narrow it down quickly.

Which commercial vacuum cleaner suits your site?

With 60+ models across the range, the quickest way to narrow it down is to match the machine to what you're actually picking up and how you're working — not just wattage or price. A commercial vacuum is specified for cleaning rounds: offices, hospitality venues, retail floors, healthcare sites. Longer duty cycles than a domestic unit, serviceable parts, and filtration rated for occupied spaces.

Backpack vacuums

Built for cleaners covering large areas on foot.

  • Both hands stay free so movement is faster and access on stairs and in tight spaces is easier than with a canister.
  • H14 HEPA filtration on the Ghibli T1 captures the finest particulates so it holds up in healthcare, aged care and schools where air quality is a compliance requirement.
  • The Cleanstar Prostar runs a four-battery system — two in use while two charge — so cord-free operation covers a full shift without a runtime gap.

The Cleanstar VBP1400 doubles as a vacuum and blower for general commercial use. Full range on our commercial backpack vacuum cleaners page.

Dry only vacuums

No liquid handling, no extra bulk — suction for dust, dirt and fine debris.

  • Compact models suit cafés and small offices so operators aren't manoeuvring a full-size drum through a tight floor plan.
  • HEPA filtration options capture fine particulates so dust stays in the machine rather than recirculating through the room.

If filtration standard is the priority, confirm whether the model carries H13 or H14 certification before purchasing. See the dry only vacuums range.

Wet and dry vacuums

Handle liquid spills, sludge, fine dust and solid debris without swapping equipment.

  • A 20–30 litre single motor unit covers daily commercial use so you're not carrying capacity you never fill.
  • Larger multi-motor units maintain airflow across bigger tanks so extraction performance holds up on substantial liquid volumes.

Tank capacity is the key decision. Browse wet and dry vacuums, or wet only vacuums if you're purely recovering liquid.

Upright vacuums

The go-to for deep carpet cleaning in commercial environments.

  • An integrated brush roll agitates carpet pile more effectively than most other vacuum types so embedded grit lifts out rather than staying in the fibre.
  • Built for heavy foot traffic so hotels, offices, retail stores and healthcare facilities get consistent results on daily rounds.

The Columbus BS361 is the standout for commercial daily use. See all upright vacuum cleaners.

Corded or cordless for daily rounds

Corded units deliver consistent power with no runtime limit — the right call for large facilities with reliable outlet access and long sessions. Cordless models remove cord management entirely, which matters where cords are a trip hazard or outlets are limited. The trade-off is battery runtime, so confirm the runtime per charge covers your actual session before choosing cordless.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between H13 and H14 HEPA filtration?

H13 HEPA captures 99.95% of particles at 0.3 microns — appropriate for most commercial applications including offices, schools and general healthcare settings. H14 HEPA captures 99.995% at the same particle size, ten times more efficient. For environments with immunocompromised patients, high-risk infection control requirements, or where the highest filtration standard is a compliance requirement, H14 is the appropriate specification. The Ghibli T1 in our range carries H14 certification.

What type of commercial vacuum is best for healthcare and aged care?

The two requirements are filtration standard and manoeuvrability. H13 or H14 HEPA filtration captures fine particulates and biological aerosols without exhausting them back into occupied spaces. Backpack vacuums are often the preferred format — fast movement through rooms and corridors with both hands free, and they reach under beds and furniture that uprights and canisters struggle with. The Ghibli T1 covers both requirements in a lightweight backpack format suited to full-shift daily use.

Do I need a commercial or an industrial vacuum?

For cleaning rounds across offices, hospitality, retail and healthcare, a commercial machine is the right specification. If the application involves continuous duty cycles, regulated hazardous materials, explosive atmospheres, or debris that would damage a standard machine, you need an industrial vacuum cleaner instead — running a commercial machine on an industrial duty cycle causes premature failure regardless of the specification.

Corded or cordless — which is better for commercial use?

Corded vacuums deliver consistent power without runtime limits, suiting large facilities with reliable outlet access and long cleaning sessions. Cordless models offer complete freedom of movement with no cord management. The trade-off is battery runtime — always confirm the runtime per charge covers your actual cleaning session. The Cleanstar Prostar's four-battery system addresses this directly for full-shift cordless operation.

What commercial vacuum brands do you stock?

Cleanstar, Dashclean, Delfin, Lavorwash, Ghibli, Columbus, Truvox, Pacvac, Surevac and SPRiNTUS. Each covers different applications and price points — Cleanstar for reliable everyday commercial performance, Ghibli and Truvox for European-engineered quality in healthcare and hospitality, and Pacvac and Surevac for Australian-made backpack options with strong ergonomic design. Give us a call and we'll compare specific models for your application.

Do you stock replacement bags, filters and accessories?

Yes — genuine replacement bags, HEPA filters, hoses, floor tools and accessories for the main brands and models in our range. Using genuine parts maintains filtration performance and warranty coverage. Give us a call with your model name and number and we'll confirm the right consumables before you order.
